...and install the Samba Sharing Package. It gives you a prefpane with a nice GUI. I've been using it for at least a year with no problems. It makes creating Windows shares as easy as SharePoints. Also, it gives you some good documentation for doing crazy things like authenticating Windows users and passwords with a Win2K/XP server.

Absolutely brilliant! Thanks for the tip. I was able to get Samba Sharing up and running in about 15 minutes. Now my Mac is happily sharing an external drive with my PC. Great program!
